PM Modi said it is now time that 100 per cent saturation is achieved in providing basic facilities, like water, electricity, gas connections, toilets and roads to people, as he said that the Union Budget 2022-23 has laid out a clear roadmap for completing this. Addressing a webinar on the positive impact of the Union Budget 2022-23 on Rural Development, PM Modi said that in the last seven years, his government made continued efforts to enhance every person and sector’s capability.

“The aim of schemes is providing basic facilities like pakka houses, toilets, gas connections, electricity, water, roads to villages and the poor people. The country has achieved great success in these schemes, but now it’s time to gain saturation of these schemes, to learn the aim of these schemes 100 per cent,” he said.

In the budget, important provisions have been made for the PM housing scheme, rural roads scheme, Jal Jeevan Mission, North East connectivity and broadband connectivity of villages. The vibrant villages programme is the key to developing border areas of the country, he said. “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, and Sabka Prayas” mantra is the driving force behind our government’s policy and action, Modi added.
